Although the minced pork noodles here don't exactly taste traditional, they are really a class of their own.
I've always known that many of Singapore's industrial estates house some of the best hawker fare. If you know where to look.
Da Sheng's bak chor mee (minced pork noodles) is one such hidden gem.
For most dry bak chor mee, the soup usually tastes bland and totally lacks flavour. One sip and that's it for me. But the soup here was in fact the first thing that really impressed me. So full of flavour with an intense taste of crispy deep-fried dried sole fish (tee poh). And it actually tastes very much like my late mom's homemade soup! That scored a big wow from me!
Noodles were perfectly cooked and they were really springy and a real pleasure to chew on, but just a tad too dry. Adding some more of that flavourful soup to the noodles should make it a lot more palatable.
Seasoning was good, but I thought that the chilli sauce could be more flavourful and the crispy pork lard could be fried crispier to release even more flavours and aromas.
And I like their fried Teochew dumplings a lot. Crispy on the outside and bursting with umaminess from the fresh minced pork and tee poh filling on the inside. Yummy yum yum!
Friendly folks and a notably good bak chor mee with super tasty soup, I'm sure I will return for more of this good grub!
